My Risky Plan

My eyes open slowly to see the flame of a fire. I must have dozed off during my time with Killian. It is sometime after midnight, the stars shine in the sky. There is little activity in the camp, but a few people walk around the fire talking in hushed tones. Killian is nowhere in sight nor are my parents. A dull throbbing pain forms in the back of my mind. I can feel the pulsing and the constant sounds. It grows louder and faster. Beating in my brain.

It is the birth of a headache. The pain is already driving me insane. If it grows worse, it could be life-threatening. I need Killian. I open my mouth to form words to call him, but instead I release a loud screech of pain.

The once dull pain is like a knife splitting into my brain. With every move I make, the knife twists cutting deeper into my head.

I must have gotten someone's attention by now. I try to form his name into my screams, so they can bring him too me.

"Kill-n!" I say through my own blood curdling screams.

I feel rough calloused hands push my back down, so I am laying on the cot. "Woah, calm down." Says an unfamiliar voice.

"Killian... get him." I say weakly. My voice cracks as a sob racks my body.

The man shouts to someone else. "She said Killian again." He says worriedly.

Dark thoughts fill my mind. "Where is he?" I scream.

"Well m'lady. We haven't exactly found him yet. You passed out in the field after screaming his name many times." Says a more familiar voice with an accent.

It was all a dream. A stupid dumb dream. No, we found each other. I need him. I cannot do this without him.

Sobs escape my mouth as angry tears stream down my face. I am so mad at myself for thinking it could have been that simple.

After discovering that my love was not here with me, I cried for hours. A major migraine hit me, but I lost myself in the pain of losing him. My screams filled the camp. I was angered at myself for many things. Mostly it was for letting down those huge walls I spent so long putting up. Killian just had this way of climbing over those walls, and once he was in he could break them down completely.

Don't think I am ungrateful and do not appreciate what I have. I love Killian. It's just that I let my guard done too far.

And if we do not find Killian these walls are going up to stay.

One day after this new curse hit, Emma Swan arrived at my camp. She must have hobbled miles with her broken leg, but somehow she made it her. Just yards from the camp, she collapsed in pain. She shouted many things we did not pay attention too. However on our way to get her, I realized she was smiling. That's when I heard what she was shouting.

"Killian!"

Those screams will probably haunt me for the rest of my life. I knew then that she was having a hallucination. She was picturing Killian here with her. When she woke up I knew she would be crushed.

However it was much worse then I expected. She screamed out in pain for hours and cried until no more tears would fall. All night she shouted things. Cursing at herself and yelling about a headache.

Regina had told me about her injuries back in Storybrooke. I knew that when she had a migraine it would not go away, only get worse.

So finding Killian was added on to my growing to do list. I still have no idea where Regina is or the Charming's. My biggest priorities are finding them all, running this camp, and keeping Emma Swan alive. Her death is an unthinkable fate and I will not put that weight on Killian's shoulders.

To keep her alive, I needed a plan. A plan that I don't quite have yet. But I have an idea. Something that she won't recover from unless we find Killian.
